that's basically it.
This video does a decent job of describing the details of pushing the rivet out (but not completely out).


When you put the rivet back in, you may need to loosen the rivet slightly to permit the link to move freely. The upper portion of the chain tool is used for this... and I'm sure there's video somewhere.
